[SOLVED] Motherboard Build Help

[1TED]

Hi there

Out of curiosity looking for a motherboard for a 10th or 11th gen i5 K/KF or i7 (non-k).
With a 1660S or a rtx 2060/2070 (since 3000 series seems to have alot of driver problems)
should i just go 10th gen with a b460 or z490 instead???

personally HOPEFULLY prefer not to pay in the range of a bazooka or mortar or tomahawk...(since its already z590 prices)


Are any of these worth getting? Or should i wait for stock to change?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
GIGABYTE B560 HD3 ??? never heard of before i guess its newish
GIGABYTE B560M AORUS ELITE

Or am i forced to get get GIGABYTE B560M AORUS PRO MSI MAG B560M BAZOOKA ASUS TUF GAMING B560M-PLUS WIFi ??

(dont like b560m pro,GIGABYTE B560M D2V +D3H +hdv, Asus prime)

didnt realize they were links xD would have probably posted in USD instead. Its just that i have never heard anyone mention aorus eliete before (usually everyone just talks about PRO)
Looking at the spec sheet eliete doesnt use DRMOS. so curious about how much heat increase that will mean.

That board has 12+1 phase. Pair it up with a decent heatsink and i5 11400/11400F and you're good to go.

Intel Core i5-11400F Review - The Best Rocket Lake

The Core i5-11400F is Intel's most affordable Rocket Lake processor. While its multiplier is locked, you can still adjust the power limit. Once we did that, the CPU ran over 15% faster and almost matched the Core i5-11600K. We also made an interesting discovery regarding Gear 1 vs. Gear 2.

Sorry for extending the question but shouldnt the Asus tuf be 8+1 drmos power phase, while the aorus eliete is a 12+1 mofset. So thinking about it shouldnt the asus tuf have less ambient heat and while having a more stable and higher clock speed? (since b560 cant cpu overclock i think)
and shouldnt it also run at less cpu frequency along with a slight coil sound?
sorry like i said i only have seen the Aorus pro benchmarks, and asus tuf and msi strix gaming A or I and tomahawk.
